Chapter 2

Author's note: from the review given on the last chapter I know it seemed like bits were left out but I was getting to it with Jane slowly revealing more of her life to Maura about Dean and also was going to give you guys a picture of what Dean is like as a person (basically horrible!) hope this chapter helps and thanks for reading and liking! :-)

Pulling into a parking space at a motel just outside of Boston, Jane looked over at Maura feeling awkward and also guilty for what had happened at the morgue. Maura looked back at her and attempted a small smile to help lighten the mood.

"Thank you...I mean it ...he was holding a gun ...you shouldn't have put yourself in that situation"

"Situation?..Maura this is all my fault he's my father and pervy sidekick you shouldn't have been involved I should have walked out that autopsy room before you figured it out"

Jane spoke with concern and horrified that Maura thought it would have been best to of stayed away and have her possibly killed for no good reason. Maura just looked at her admiring her honesty.

"I saw red...i know it sounds crazy but yes he did kill that guy and he was innocent i didnt want the same thing happen to you so i knew i had to do something...when I got out our house my fathers car was gone I knew he was after you so I took Dean's..Seems like I have a habit of taking cars guess that's another crime you can add to my record on top of lying to the cops"

Maura smiles.

"Well to be fair you took my car with me in it as you was saving me ...or possibly kidnapping me I'm not quite sure"

This caused Jane to laugh a little at the confused look Maura was showing. Both ladies then got out the car and check into a room. Sitting down on the bed Maura watched Jane check outside the window.

"We should be safe till morning then we gotta move...he won't stop until its over he never does despite the consequences and Dean well he will follow any orders given because he's an idiot who likes to torment ..Mainly because he's after something he's never gonna get"

Jane explained giving Maura a look to say you know what I mean. Maura looked wide eyed.

"Oh...so the possessive type"

"Only because my father told him he could have me and he can't ...like I'd touch him with a bargepole ...my father keeps trying but I'd rather be hit or beaten before that happens"

Maura looked straight at her hearing what she said.

"You get beaten?..Jane..."

Suddenly feeling all worried and sad for her, Maura reaches out and touches her arm for reassurance and giving her a concerned look. Jane gives her an ' I'm okay' look and sits next to her.

"Well if you ever need to talk I'm here..."

Maura started before Jane interrupted.

"Yea I know you got that whole doctor confidentiality stuff right plus your stuck here with me"

Giving a little grin trying to make the situation better. Maura smiled back.

"Being stuck here with you isn't so bad if anything it's nice to actually talk to someone who I don't work with 24/7 and who is also alive ...not that im crazy talking to dead people but I'd like to believe I help them in some way moving on and such"

Maura paused and looked at Jane who was just looking a little taken back.

"I talk too much sometimes ...just you know tell me to stop or walk away"

Looking away kind of embarrassed, Jane just smiled.

"Okay Google mouth whatever you say"

Clocking onto the nickname Jane just gave her Maura pushed her slightly laughing a little.

"Hey!"

A week later Frank and Dean were still looking for the two women. Frank blamed it all on Dean as he was supposed to look after Jane and keep an eye on her.

"Well maybe she would still be here and with me if you backed off a little and left her to me!"

"you only had a chance with her because I said you could do what you want so long as she never talks now look what's happened she blabbed to the first person who actually noticed her..I'm gonna kill that doctor they have to come back at some point, the doctors not thick she won't give up her job and career for some troubled messed up girl she's just met"

Dean just looked at him annoyed and grabbed his cell.

"I'm going to see if Mickey's seen her ...he was checking the airports with the others"

Calling Mickey, Dean walked out leaving Frank to deal with he's anger. The only thing they didn't realize was that the two women were already out of Boston.

Flopping down on the bed Jane sighed looking over as Maura done the same; they had both got pretty close the past week as they only had each other to rely on.

"Do we have to keep living out of hotels it's driving me crazy all this moving he's not gonna find us here besides we changed our names!

Jane said frustrated and kicking her shoes off. Maura laughed at how stroppy Jane was being.

"we'll what do you want us to do rent an apartment and live here"

Jane looked over at her suddenly realising what they were doing.

"No...I don't want you to be stuck with me...I mean yes for you to go back to Boston it would be very dangerous but you got a career you could be a medical examiner here and get on with your life"

Maura frowned listening and looks over.

"Well ...what about you what are you going to do"

Jane bit her lip knowing that she's going to hate the idea.

"go back...least if I'm there they will be off your back ill say that you left and went your own way because you don't want any trouble"

Maura looked horrified at this and sat up grabbing Jane's arm.

"Jane no! You can't they will hurt you...I won't let you"

"Maura I don't wanna ruin your life"

Looking at her with a sad look.

"You're not ruining my life ...you've made it better because now I have you in it"

"So...what kind of person does this to their friend puts them in danger and takes them away from their home"

"The best person who is trying to look out and protect their friend from getting killed by their father you didn't ask for any of this or to have a father like that ...I want to be here and with you...together"

Maura looked back at her realising her feelings are more than what a friend should have and lays back down next to her.

"Get some sleep then we will decide tomorrow what we will do"

Jane just nodded and turned away with her back to Maura. Looking at her a minute Maura turned on her side facing Jane's back.

"Night Maura"

Jane said quietly before feeling an arm go across her and take her hand tightly.

"Goodnight Jane"

Jane closed her eyes giving Maura's hand a squeeze before the pair of them fell asleep.
